Perhaps what defines more recent periods is the depth of research involved - are we re-creating a world which needs careful detail or writing a 'memoir' treatment where it is only the author's perception that matters? What history means is also so personal - I remember my dad freaking when I studied the Vietnam War at university as that wasn't history in his eyes and now my daughter is doing a PhD on the IRA in the 1980s, making me feel very old!Catherine Hokinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16251036106757891834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-38097295465137690912015-10-22T09:52:05.847+01:002015-10-22T09:52:05.847+01:00A lovely post, Kate.
